Objectives: While surgery plays a crucial role in treating papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), the potential effects of subsequent TSH suppression therapy on prognosis should not be overlooked. This study aims to investigate the factors that influence postoperative TSH suppression therapy in patients with PTC.
Methods: This study was a retrospective cohort study conducted at our hospital.
Background And Aims: The objective of this observational study was to determine whether there is an association between atrial fibrillation (AF) and uric acid and to identify the risk markers for AF in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Methods: Consecutive patients with newly diagnosed OSA were screened at baseline. The final study population consisted of 516 patients.
Article Synopsis
- Acinetobacter baumannii is a resilient, gram-negative bacterium that poses a significant threat in healthcare settings due to its rapid development of antibiotic resistance, particularly to carbapenems.
- A study analyzed data from a large hospital to identify risk factors associated with pneumonia caused by carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) compared to carbapenem-susceptible strains (CSAB).
- Findings revealed that patients with CRAB pneumonia had a higher mortality rate, with specific risk factors including high APACHE II scores, chronic health issues, use of invasive devices, and prior antibiotic use within 28 days.
